If you’re looking for a way to get some extra sleep, there are plenty of options out there. But if you’re like most people, you probably don’t have an iPhone in your bedroom. That’s because the iPhone doesn’t have a built-in sleep monitor. But that’s about to change! A new company called Sleepy Planet has released an iPhone app that can track your sleep and wake times, as well as provide you with information on how much sleep you’ve gotten in the past night. The app is free and available on the App Store. And if you’re looking for a more comfortable way to bed down your iPhone, then this might be just what you need!
Once a week we round up some great reader tips and share them with everyone. This week we’re looking at using your iPhone as a sleep monitor that wakes you at an optimum time, how to test your remote with a digital camera, and a clever way to craft glowing Easter eggs.
